Obverse description Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the George IV State Diadem Crown, engraved by Cecil Thomas in a refined portrait style characteristic of the first Elizabethan coinage type. The Queen's hair is elaborately waved and styled beneath the crown, and her draped shoulders are visible at the bust truncation. The circular legend QUEEN ELIZABETH THE SECOND surrounds the effigy, with the text distributed evenly around the toothed border. The field is smooth and unadorned, focusing full attention on the regal portrait.
Obverse script Latin
Obverse lettering QUEEN ELIZABETH THE SECOND
